Can you sell your house (and get paid) before you move out?

Can you sell your house (and get paid) before you move out? The answer is, yes it is possible to sell your house and move out after the closing. It is common for people to need the money from the sales of the house so that they can afford to pack up and move to the next house. We do buy houses in this way from time to time, but it is important that you let us know upfront so we can plan for it. Like this house that we bought in Slidell and then did a post purchase occupancy agreement with the seller so they could stay for a couple of extra weeks while they moved.

You can see the video of Jon from Home Buyer Louisiana talking about this particular purchase or you can watch the transcript below.

Good morning! This is Jon with Home Buyer Louisiana, and I’m at a house in Slidell that we recently purchased. We actually closed on this property a couple of weeks ago. The seller was looking to relocate out of state and needed some extra time after the closing to get everything together and move out.

To accommodate his situation, we worked out an arrangement where we closed on the house first and then allowed him some additional time to pack up and move out. Over the weekend, he was able to get everything done, and now I’m here conducting a walkthrough of the property.

Everything looks great! The seller has already moved out of state, and I spoke with him yesterday. He mentioned how happy he was with how everything turned out, and we’re really glad we could provide this solution for him.
